Jonathan David, a 26-year-old Canadian forward, is making headlines with the latest news from Atlético de Madrid as he seizes the opportunity to move closer to the €25 million purchase option agreed with Juventus. He arrived on September 1 and has already scored in his first three LaLiga matches, including victories against Real Sociedad, Osasuna, and Real Madrid.

According to AS, the agreement signed at the end of the transfer window includes a loan deal until June 2027 with a non-mandatory purchase option of €25 million. Moreover, Atlético does not cover his entire salary as Juventus contributes a portion of his wages for this season.

Jonathan David responds to Simeone's challenge

David wasted no time in impressing Simeone. After debuting at Anfield, the forward scored consecutively against Real Sociedad, Osasuna, and Real Madrid, a feat unmatched by an Atlético player in the first three league matches since 1995.

His first LaLiga start against Osasuna ended with a goal in a 4-0 win. He then scored in the Madrid derby, securing a 2-1 victory and solidifying his role in the attack, which faced absences during September.

His performance contrasts with his time at Juventus. David joined Italy for free after leaving Lille and ended his debut season with 8 goals in 46 appearances. Prior to that, he had scored 109 goals and made 31 assists in five seasons with the French club.

Simeone highlighted in September his expectations for David to rediscover his form from his time in France. During his last three seasons at Lille, he scored 77 goals in 136 games, figures that dropped after his move to Turin.

The €25 million evaluation for Atlético de Madrid

The early statistics reveal differences compared to his previous clubs. Pro BeSoccer data shows that Jonathan David wins 46.15% of his offensive duels at Atlético, surpassing the 34.3% at Lille and 31.5% at Juventus.

His box presence has also increased, with 7.54 touches in the opponent's area every 90 minutes, exceeding the previous counts. This rise correlates with his three goals in the initial league games.

His performance makes a key condition accepted by Atlético stand out. They could secure his permanent transfer for €25 million in June 2027, without being obliged to trigger that clause.

Simeone's decision to determine the next step

David's market value in Madrid stands at €30 million, as noted by Transfermarkt, surpassing the option in his loan deal by five million.

The verdict is not immediate. Simeone has the entire season to assess his fit alongside Julián Álvarez and Alexander Sørloth before Atlético decides what action to take in June 2027. If Jonathan David maintains his form, the €25 million agreed with Juventus will shift from a contractual possibility to a market decision for Atlético to address.
